In a Galaxy Far, Far Away

[theundertaken]

[Max doesn't bother putting out any flyers for this or anything; he's already discussed the movie party with a lot of people, and he'll probably round up anybody he's missed while he's getting ready. The preparations aren't anything too fancy. He's put a soda by each seat, along with a little plastic cup of popcorn. It's not a lot of work, but it's a fair amount of cups - maybe someone can help get it ready?

Regardless, he'll lean out the door and call when he's done:]

Hey, dudes, come watch Star Wars with us!

[Yes, it's Star Wars night. A New Hope, none of that prequel garbage. We apologize to Finn, I guess.]

...?

[he pauses and really looks.]

Huh, guess not. Case in point.

[..........leeeeet's move on]

Uh. Kinda on that note, is your English really good or do we have some kind of Babelfish thing happening here?

[le_mat]

[wise move]

It's not awful, but not really conversational level either. Definitely being translated.

[theundertaken]

Oh, fuck. Do you hear yourself speaking Japanese right now? Am I speaking Japanese?

[le_mat]

Your Japanese is really good, if that helps?

[theundertaken]

That'd be a huge compliment if I spoke Japanese. God, and now I can't even learn, everything sounds like English? And why English?

...okay, what about this, does this still sound like English or estoy perdiendo todo mi maldito patrimonio de Dios?

[le_mat]

Okay, you definately changed languages there. Spanish? Was that Spanish?

[His English might be acceptable for his age, but anything else he has no effing clue dude]

Uhm... how about-

[He blushes and chews his lips before]

Can ya still un'erstand this?

[Still 'English' but like Akira just turned the switch from modern teen to Deliverance]

[theundertaken]

Yeah, that was Spanish. Why is my default English? What does that mean?

[sorry he's gonna have a little bilingual crisis over here]

Uh...yeah. Still English, you just sound Alabaman now.

[le_mat]

Alabama... that's a state, right? And... I don't really know. Do you speak Spanish more often?

[theundertaken]

Not really. It depends who I'm talking to. Spanish with family, but I definitely do use English more.
